Rōnin (浪人) talks over (How -Tu) employ speed & angles (CQB)

In this video, learn how I drew from my experience in Close Quarter Tactics to achieve the elements of surprise, speed and violence. Understand some of the principles I’ve applied in order to gain angles in a structure or barrier while maximizing cover and concealment. In Close Quarters Battle (CQB) it’s about gaining the advantage over the situation by applying angles, interlocking firepower, speed and stealth to the threat. Civilians can also employ these tactics for home defense. Keep an open mind and draw out the skills that is useful to your life.
Tu Lam (Ret. Special Forces- Green Beret) is a professional tactics and weapons expert with over 22.9 years of Special Operations experience. The training represented on these training modules are the tip of the spear in close quarters combat. Tu Lam has personally researched different forms of tactics used by Special Operations forces from around the world to enhance his operational abilities while deployed to hostile areas. These forms are lethal and should be performed with extreme caution. Failure to do so can result in serious injuries or death. Treat your blade with the same respect as a firearm.

6 years in the infantry, mostly doing mout stuff, and I learned more in this one video then whole time in.

[@PACMANx805]

I mean this is the best knowledge the army had to offer so makes sense.

[@oceansflowsyt9573]

Omnicide mout is army right? And isn’t that CQB killhouse stuff

[@GruntOrBust]

I can agree with that. Our unit was fortunate, and our second deployment we were broken down to squads that deployed with specific SF ODA's. We did our pre-deployment train up with them, and my mind was blown by the absolute knowledge they bestowed upon us. Regular infantry training these days, at least before I got out, was just based more on the Afghanistan type of environment than urban/iraq so we just did battle drills in the woods, just practicing fire team/squad/platoon maneuvering and movement formations. Budget was severely lacking too with Obama so most of our room clearing training at our unit was done with good old plywood and 2x4s, or even better the glass house training with the white tape lmao.

Ronin Tactics and UF Pro are my two favorite channels for these kinds of lessons. I'm just a civilian, but this stuff helps me so much as I consider home defense and generally just dealing with self-defense in CQB environments. Because if I do get into some shit, it's probably going to be CQB.

[@David-qp5wp]

In my opinion Ronin's videos are more cut to the point, the UF's are super detailed. But I like the way how ronin instruct a little bit more and his stuff are also somehow easier to digest😂

[@thedefinitive6296]

@@David-qp5wp I feel ya on that. I learn so much from both. Tu' style of teaching is more digestible for sure and maybe I stay more engaged watching his videos. Both channels have incredibly valuable info that even my dumbass civilian self can understand :P

Last night my girlfriend woke me up as there was a noise in the night, so I had to clear my house, thankfully it was nothing but it got my blood pumping and was good practice. It got me thinking how i need to practice doing that more often, these tips definitely help, will continue to watch your CQB vids and hopefully take a class in future, this info is invaluable!

[@GreedeeVids]

Former active duty Marine. I spent many hours training the rifle in the 90s. After being out and watching video's like yourself that are the real deal. I learned the way we are trained at the time could be improved on what I learned. Some one that refuses to adapt and over come is like quick drying cement, you will be as good as you were. While everyone else around you gets better. Good video serious sir. Semper Fi.

[@ryean1_aus]

How were you trained?

[@GreedeeVids]

@@ryean1_aus Holding the rifle closer towards the mag well while firing off hand. Making a slight C cup with your left hand while holding the rifle in standing. Using his method you can drive the weapon much more proficiently imho.

[@ryean1_aus]

@@GreedeeVids For sure. Thanks!

[@GreedeeVids]

@@ryean1_aus Like he mentions in this video, always be willing to adapt. I learn things all the time. I'm a great shot, however, I can always improve. You try a new method. If it works put it in your tool belt and use it. If it doesn't keep moving forward. Hope this helps.

[@AGC828]

I'm a civilian as well. But clearly this sounds like good advice that actually works. Can be applicable in a home defence situation...assuming many factors are in our favour. (e.g. you live alone...don't have family or pets to worry about...waking up from deep sleep..after/if you are able to reach for your firearm...etc.) This video was educational. "Home Defence"? I doubt will ever work in our favour. So these tips...perfect for LEO/military teams....Nice to see the US military didn't keep certain races from joining and being a part of elite teams...

I've taken a few classes on one-man clearing rooms and stairwells (and advised against it), but I have not heard of the 45- and 90 degree angle before. It it was covered before, then apparently I did not understand it clearly. Sometimes it takes a different instructor for some finer points to click. Thank you.

[@ryean1_aus]

Why did you advise against it? In what context?

[@mikethatcher6494]

@@ryean1_aus mostly from what I know clearing rooms solo is dangerous and has the highest risk of death when clearing, there's always a point man and a 2nd soldier/police backing up the point man

[@ryean1_aus]

@@mikethatcher6494 Any room clearing is dangerous. In team clearing, pointman is at as much risk as solo. And for that moment, he is solo. The point being more to do with casualty sustainment and blind angles.

FR33STYL3 B4ND1T, indeed. It’s also based upon various assumptions such as no multiple combatants setting-up an ambush where yes, then a hail of rifle fire through walls is likely. Good intel would help mitigate that.
